00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:21,040
Speaker 1: Mother Knows Dad starring Nicole and Jemmy and Maria qk Hi.

2
00:00:21,079 --> 00:00:23,160
Speaker 2: Everyone, welcome The Mother Knows Death. We have a great

3
00:00:23,200 --> 00:00:24,000
Speaker 2: show for you today.

4
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:26,200
Speaker 3: First, we're going to talk about a sports figure who

5
00:00:26,280 --> 00:00:28,360
Speaker 3: had an operation to remove some of his toes and

6
00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:31,240
Speaker 3: decided to keep one of them in a very unusual

7
00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:35,360
Speaker 3: location in his mansion, an accident involving a very large

8
00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:38,080
Speaker 3: nail and a seven year old child, a man who

9
00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:40,680
Speaker 3: was killed by a lion on a camping trip, another

10
00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:42,879
Speaker 3: case of a person faking in illness in order to

11
00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:46,000
Speaker 3: get go fund me money, and of course other possible

12
00:00:46,120 --> 00:00:47,640
Speaker 3: uses for period blood.

13
00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:53,360
Speaker 2: Let's get started with this amputated toe story. X darts

14
00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:56,120
Speaker 2: star I didn't really know that was considered a sport

15
00:00:56,200 --> 00:01:00,160
Speaker 2: playing professional darts. Bobby George has a genetic deformity which

16
00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:03,480
Speaker 2: required him to have four operations to remove some toes,

17
00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:07,119
Speaker 2: two on each foot. Interestingly, he was allowed to keep

18
00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:09,160
Speaker 2: one of his toes that he had removed, and he

19
00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:11,800
Speaker 2: keeps it in a vodka bottle that's on display in

20
00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:15,400
Speaker 2: the bar of his home. Yeah, so the doctor handed

21
00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:18,240
Speaker 2: it to him. I guess it was in formaldehyde at

22
00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:20,440
Speaker 2: some point and they were like, okay, we could give

23
00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:22,640
Speaker 2: you this toe, but you're not taking the formaldehyde home.

24
00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:25,720
Speaker 2: So that to me means that it was already fixed

25
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:28,280
Speaker 2: it for a couple of days, which is good. So

26
00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:30,880
Speaker 2: he was like, well, I guess I.

27
00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:32,720
Speaker 3: Could put it in rubbing alcohol or something, and he

28
00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:34,360
Speaker 3: was like, no, I'll just put it in I'll just

29
00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:37,240
Speaker 3: put it in vodka. So now it's on display, and

30
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:39,480
Speaker 3: he said sometimes he whips it out and asks people

31
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:45,080
Speaker 3: if they want a cocktail or a cock tow. So

32
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:48,080
Speaker 3: I guess he so this is this is a common

33
00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:50,360
Speaker 3: thing that people go through. Not common, but it happens

34
00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 3: to people that they have problems with their feet hit

35
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:58,000
Speaker 3: he had really didn't say exactly what he was diagnosed with,

36
00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:00,920
Speaker 3: but just said he had overlapping toe that were ended

37
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:03,600
Speaker 3: up being so uncomfortable and painful. There was a point

38
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,960
Speaker 3: where he wanted to cut them off himself. And I've

39
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 3: heard that from people before. So you can get something

40
00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:14,160
Speaker 3: like overlapping toes with something like rheumatarid arthritis, which is

41
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:19,480
Speaker 3: an autoimmune disease of the joints. My dad has a

42
00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:21,520
Speaker 3: coupler that are going that way. Oh my god, my

43
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:26,000
Speaker 3: grandmom's feet were ridiculous. They were like pinky toe all

44
00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:28,359
Speaker 3: all the way going over to the big toe.

45
00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 2: It was crazy.

46
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:33,320
Speaker 3: But you could also get it from having flat feet, bunions.

47
00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:35,480
Speaker 3: There's all sorts of other reasons that you can.

48
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:37,959
Speaker 2: Get it too, So we don't know what he had.

49
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,840
Speaker 2: He did say in the article that he had other

50
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:41,760
Speaker 2: issues with.

51
00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:44,000
Speaker 3: His hips, having authritis really bad in his hips, But

52
00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 3: rheumatard arthritis is an autoimmune position, whereas uh osteoarthritis is

53
00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:52,200
Speaker 3: like wear and tear on the joints just from getting old.

54
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,480
Speaker 3: So they didn't really say exactly what he had going

55
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:57,680
Speaker 3: on in his body. But yeah, he got all of

56
00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:01,680
Speaker 3: his toes amputated, so he looks like he's got like

57
00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:05,160
Speaker 3: little stumps. I guess if people are surprised to even

58
00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:06,960
Speaker 3: hear it when he shows them, And I just think

59
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:08,919
Speaker 3: this is kind of cool, Like that's something I would

60
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:10,320
Speaker 3: want to do, So it's cool.

61
00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:13,280
Speaker 2: Can you imagine being at his house for like a

62
00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:15,400
Speaker 2: party or something and him just being like, oh, go

63
00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:17,720
Speaker 2: behind the bar and grab whatever you want, and then

64
00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:21,520
Speaker 2: you end up grabbing the toe vodka. Well, it's It's

65
00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:25,399
Speaker 2: also interesting because I always thought, you know, like back

66
00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:27,760
Speaker 2: in the day, they used to let little kids take

67
00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:29,880
Speaker 2: home their tonsils and stuff like that, and when you

68
00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:31,480
Speaker 2: look at it, it just looks like a piece of

69
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 2: chewed gum in a jar. But there's something about toes

70
00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:40,200
Speaker 2: and fingers that are they're they're human. They make it

71
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:42,320
Speaker 2: seem human, and you look at it and you're like,

72
00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:45,520
Speaker 2: that's a body part. It's very clear to distinguish it.

73
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:48,880
Speaker 3: And I don't know, I just think so that it's

74
00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:51,240
Speaker 3: probably disturbing. Like you come over my house and you're

75
00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:53,640
Speaker 3: like whatever when you see stuff, but when you're at

76
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:56,200
Speaker 3: like a regular person's house, you're just like, this is

77
00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:59,120
Speaker 3: this is really weird. And one of the interesting things though,

78
00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:00,880
Speaker 3: is that I want to tell you guys, in case

79
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:03,600
Speaker 3: you want to take your toes home, it had already

80
00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 3: been fixed in formal and so it was kind of

81
00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:11,120
Speaker 3: the formulain stops the decomposition process from happening, and a

82
00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:14,120
Speaker 3: toe is little, so they can get penetrated very easily

83
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:17,040
Speaker 3: with the formulain, so you can transfer it to alcohol.

84
00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:17,599
Speaker 2: At that point.

85
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:21,080
Speaker 3: Now the vodka is like, okay, whatever, I get the joke,

86
00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:24,400
Speaker 3: but it's only forty percent alcohol. Worrek as like you

87
00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:26,960
Speaker 3: might want to do an ic of propenol alcohol or

88
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:30,159
Speaker 3: something that's like seventy percent. The less water the better

89
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:34,839
Speaker 3: it might preserve a little bit better. But yeah, I

90
00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:36,039
Speaker 3: think that this is so cool.

91
00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:40,480
Speaker 2: It is. I like, I'm bummed there's not a picture

92
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:44,240
Speaker 2: of it. Definitely interesting. All right. In India, a seven

93
00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:46,760
Speaker 2: year old boy was playing when he fell down and

94
00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:49,520
Speaker 2: landed on a three inch nail that went through his

95
00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:52,760
Speaker 2: neck up to his brain. We've been having a lot

96
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:55,760
Speaker 2: of stories like this lately on here, but in the

97
00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:58,280
Speaker 2: gross room as well of just these insane like the

98
00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:01,240
Speaker 2: one we were talking about. Well, last week.

99
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:05,039
Speaker 3: In the gross room was this crazy domestic violence situation

100
00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:08,520
Speaker 3: involving a knife that went through this poor woman's face

101
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:11,799
Speaker 3: and head. And it's like you always hear about these

102
00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:16,039
Speaker 3: these horrible things that could happen, and it just misses

103
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:18,760
Speaker 3: a major blood vessel and doesn't kill the person, and

104
00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:21,280
Speaker 3: it's it's kind of really interesting that that happens all

105
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:23,480
Speaker 3: the time. You look at this imaging and you're like,

106
00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:26,960
Speaker 3: how did this kid have a nail that was three

107
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:29,680
Speaker 3: inches long and their little tiny head and not hit

108
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:32,599
Speaker 3: any vital structures. It's just kind of amazing.

109
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:34,960
Speaker 2: No, it really is. And he's really lucky because they

110
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,599
Speaker 2: did surgery. It ended up being successful, but that could

111
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:40,880
Speaker 2: have been so horrible. I can't even imagine.

112
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:44,320
Speaker 3: This reminds me of this one time because when my

113
00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:46,640
Speaker 3: grandparents used to come visit, my mom and my grandma

114
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:49,080
Speaker 3: used to go out shopping or something, and my dad

115
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:51,839
Speaker 3: and my grandpa were in charge of watching my brother,

116
00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:55,400
Speaker 3: which entailed them sitting on the couch and watching sports

117
00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:58,119
Speaker 3: and my brother just doing whatever he was doing, which

118
00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:00,760
Speaker 3: and he was a he got in the trouble. He

119
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:05,040
Speaker 3: was little, and he had these big railroad nails they

120
00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:07,880
Speaker 3: you know the ones that they're those huge ones, you

121
00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:11,040
Speaker 3: know that they would use to put down railroad, and

122
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:14,240
Speaker 3: he was hammering it into the ground and he like

123
00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:17,320
Speaker 3: got it caught in between his finger and the nail,

124
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:22,200
Speaker 3: and like his fingers got really flat, right, So he

125
00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:24,599
Speaker 3: came home and so he went up to my grandpa

126
00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:27,400
Speaker 3: and my dad and was just like, I hurt my finger,

127
00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:29,320
Speaker 3: and they were like they like shook his head and

128
00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:32,000
Speaker 3: they're like you're fine. And then mo Mom comes home

129
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:34,040
Speaker 3: and they ended up taking him to the hospital.

130
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:37,279
Speaker 2: He at least had broken fingers. I think he may

131
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:40,279
Speaker 2: have had to have surg Did he have to have surgery?

132
00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:42,279
Speaker 3: I don't know if he had to have surgery, but

133
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:44,840
Speaker 3: he definitely broke his fingers.

134
00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:47,159
Speaker 2: Like he he crushed the bone of his fingers.

135
00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:50,320
Speaker 3: It was crazy, and like my grandparents and my and

136
00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:52,360
Speaker 3: my dad were like, just put a bandaid on it.

137
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:56,480
Speaker 3: So yeah, like kids, obviously the kids could get hurt

138
00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:57,960
Speaker 3: playing with things like this.

139
00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:01,200
Speaker 2: So but he he fine. It seems like he was

140
00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:01,919
Speaker 2: in the ICU.

141
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:05,040
Speaker 3: I mean, he's as far as this article is written,

142
00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:07,440
Speaker 3: it seems like he was still recovering. But like he's

143
00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:11,520
Speaker 3: alive and he doesn't have any major damage all right.

144
00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:14,080
Speaker 2: In South Africa, this man was camping at a luxury

145
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:16,120
Speaker 2: resort with his wife and when he stepped out of

146
00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:18,600
Speaker 2: his tent to use a toilet, he was attacked by

147
00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:20,840
Speaker 2: a lion and got killed.

148
00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:24,880
Speaker 3: I don't know, Like I never camped, and I always

149
00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:28,920
Speaker 3: wonder that. I mean, obviously, if you're camping in the woods,

150
00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:30,760
Speaker 3: there's things that live in the woods, right, So if

151
00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:33,200
Speaker 3: you're in Africa and these things live in the woods.

152
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:37,480
Speaker 2: Like, is this a surprise? Well, I guess you would

153
00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:39,520
Speaker 2: want to hope if you're at like a luxury resort

154
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:43,080
Speaker 2: that they have everything, you know kind of, but but like.

155
00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:46,240
Speaker 3: What they don't have it blocked off. It's this isn't

156
00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:47,200
Speaker 3: like Disney World.

157
00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:49,880
Speaker 2: Well, this is what I'm talking about in alligators and

158
00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:52,400
Speaker 2: stuff even get into Disney World. It's not fool proof.

159
00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:55,200
Speaker 2: They can because it's nature and that's their home, not

160
00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:59,360
Speaker 2: your home. So like they don't care that you're there. Yeah,

161
00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:00,640
Speaker 2: I don't. I don't know.

162
00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:03,640
Speaker 3: I mean just think about being camping with your loved

163
00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:06,040
Speaker 3: one and seeing them get ripped apart by a lion

164
00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:09,640
Speaker 3: must be terrifying because if you've seen how they eat

165
00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:11,320
Speaker 3: other animals, it's not pleasant.

166
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:14,400
Speaker 2: No, And they were saying that others were able to

167
00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:17,000
Speaker 2: scare the lion off, but like obviously too late. I

168
00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:19,640
Speaker 2: assume their attacks are very quick and they hurt and

169
00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:21,880
Speaker 2: they're very painful. Yeah you and.

170
00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:25,120
Speaker 3: Like what, like what hospital are they near to get

171
00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:28,080
Speaker 3: any kind of treatment, even if it was survivable, Like

172
00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:30,280
Speaker 3: it's it's not like being around here and just call

173
00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:32,400
Speaker 3: nine on one and having an ambulance show up and

174
00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:34,240
Speaker 3: being at the hospital in twenty minutes, you know.

175
00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:45,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, like you're in the wilderness. This episode is brought

176
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:46,560
Speaker 2: to you by the Gross Room.

177
00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:49,679
Speaker 3: All right, so this week we did Physician Assistant Suicide

178
00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:50,840
Speaker 3: for our high profile death.

179
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,280
Speaker 2: I don't know what we're doing next week. That's still

180
00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:54,880
Speaker 2: up in the air. We have a couple of things

181
00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:56,360
Speaker 2: on the list, but we have a couple of things

182
00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 2: on their toes. Yeah, we have a couple of things

183
00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:01,400
Speaker 2: on the list, but we're always like, you know, stuff happens,

184
00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:04,319
Speaker 2: and then you always want to have the breaking news

185
00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:09,280
Speaker 2: for the death. Okay, So we're talking about healthcare workers

186
00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:11,680
Speaker 2: and things that they've had to encounter on their job,

187
00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:16,440
Speaker 2: like live maggots on patients. It's really disturbing some of

188
00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:19,840
Speaker 2: these videos. I titled one of them this is exactly

189
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:23,040
Speaker 2: why I can't be a nurse, because I can't imagine

190
00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:25,400
Speaker 2: having a person that has live maggots living on them

191
00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:29,760
Speaker 2: and just having to take care of them and having

192
00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:33,320
Speaker 2: a smile on my face. Because normally when we get

193
00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:36,000
Speaker 2: either obviously a body that's dead with maggots on it

194
00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:39,719
Speaker 2: or body parts, leg or some amputation, we're in the

195
00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:42,839
Speaker 2: lab by ourself and like the patient can't see us,

196
00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:47,360
Speaker 2: and just it's kind of disturbing seeing a parasite on

197
00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:49,800
Speaker 2: a person. Yeah.

198
00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:52,440
Speaker 3: We also have this other interesting video of a guy

199
00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:54,280
Speaker 3: who was pulled out of the river and you can

200
00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:56,760
Speaker 3: see exactly what happens to a body in that situation,

201
00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:59,439
Speaker 3: which is really again disturbing.

202
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:02,839
Speaker 2: Check that out, all that and more. Yeah, head of

203
00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:06,760
Speaker 2: it to the grossroom dot com. All right, So we

204
00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:09,760
Speaker 2: have another case. It seems like we're having one of

205
00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:14,640
Speaker 2: these a month at least, of a person faking in illness. This,

206
00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:16,680
Speaker 2: this is so weird. So a thirty year old woman

207
00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:19,520
Speaker 2: checked herself into a PA hospital under a fake name,

208
00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:21,720
Speaker 2: where she ended up staying for over a month and

209
00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:24,200
Speaker 2: racking up a bill of over five hundred and sixty

210
00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:27,320
Speaker 2: thousand dollars. So she told the hospital she had sickle

211
00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:30,280
Speaker 2: cell anemia and would pay for the services out of pocket,

212
00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:33,280
Speaker 2: but they ended up getting suspicious of her after she

213
00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:35,720
Speaker 2: had already been staying there for a month, when she

214
00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:37,920
Speaker 2: had a test that revealed she did not have sickle

215
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:38,920
Speaker 2: cell anemia.

216
00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:42,720
Speaker 3: This case reminded me of the room what's her name,

217
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:47,959
Speaker 3: Gipsy Rose situation where remember her mom like brought her

218
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:50,200
Speaker 3: to a hospital and was like, my kid has cancer

219
00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:53,200
Speaker 3: and they were like given this kid chemotherapy without proving

220
00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:54,800
Speaker 3: that the kid actually had cancer.

221
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:58,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, so they're trying to argue that she had legitimate

222
00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:01,319
Speaker 2: medical documents signed by I thought, like, did she had?

223
00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:03,560
Speaker 2: But I'm just kind of like sick cell.

224
00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:05,840
Speaker 3: I feel like sickle cell is something that you could

225
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:08,040
Speaker 3: test with blood tests, And I'm like, if you have

226
00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:10,480
Speaker 3: a strange person coming in that says they have all

227
00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:13,080
Speaker 3: this stuff, like why wouldn't you just test just to

228
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:16,520
Speaker 3: be like where is this patient at? Because I can't

229
00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:20,440
Speaker 3: imagine that her blood work like it was normal, So

230
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:22,200
Speaker 3: I don't understand why that wasn't.

231
00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:24,959
Speaker 2: And I guess like when you're having treatment, it might

232
00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:26,440
Speaker 2: normalize or something. I don't know.

233
00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:29,000
Speaker 3: It just sounds a little weird to me that this

234
00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:32,640
Speaker 3: person was getting medications like these hardcore medications that could

235
00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:37,120
Speaker 3: be sometimes for sickle cell and wasn't even didn't have

236
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:38,839
Speaker 3: it and nobody knew it for a month.

237
00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:43,920
Speaker 2: That's a month to me is so long to be

238
00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:44,839
Speaker 2: in the hospital.

239
00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:49,440
Speaker 3: It is like it is it's it's dude, if you're

240
00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:52,280
Speaker 3: at the hospital for a month, you're like dying.

241
00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:55,439
Speaker 2: That's what I'm talking about. That's a that's an insane

242
00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:57,760
Speaker 2: amount of time. I feel like it takes a lot

243
00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:00,480
Speaker 2: for them to even keep you overnight alone in an

244
00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:03,520
Speaker 2: entire month. So after they got suspicious of her, they

245
00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:06,240
Speaker 2: confronted her, She presented them with a fake idea and

246
00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:08,640
Speaker 2: then checked herself out of the hospital, and then they

247
00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:11,360
Speaker 2: discovered that she had done this at two other hospitals.

248
00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:14,800
Speaker 2: But I guess the motive behind this is she was

249
00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:19,559
Speaker 2: trying to steal money on GoFundMe. Yes, I try to

250
00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:21,319
Speaker 2: get she was trying to get people to feel bad

251
00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:22,800
Speaker 2: for her on go fund me to give her money

252
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:25,440
Speaker 2: for her treatment. Why go through with the treatments? Couldn't

253
00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:27,160
Speaker 2: use a lot exactly?

254
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:30,160
Speaker 3: Like who knows what medications she just put in her

255
00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:33,040
Speaker 3: body for absolutely no reason, Like like we say this

256
00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:35,839
Speaker 3: all the time, like those medications are they're not good,

257
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:37,760
Speaker 3: They're just to help you when you have like sickle

258
00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:40,200
Speaker 3: cell is a really terrible disease for people.

259
00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:43,679
Speaker 2: It causes so you know how you have.

260
00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:46,160
Speaker 3: Hemoglobin on your blood cells, and your blood cells look

261
00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:48,960
Speaker 3: like kind of like little pillows or like cheerios that

262
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:51,360
Speaker 3: are filled in or like these circles with little divots

263
00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:54,200
Speaker 3: in them. That's what they're normally supposed to look like,

264
00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:57,840
Speaker 3: and they carry hemoglobe into all of your organs all around.

265
00:12:58,240 --> 00:12:58,560
Speaker 2: Well.

266
00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:02,240
Speaker 3: Sickle cell is a hemoglobin disorder, so it makes them.

267
00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:04,720
Speaker 3: It's called sickle cell because it makes them look like

268
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:08,040
Speaker 3: a sickle or like like a crescent moon. That's what

269
00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:09,560
Speaker 3: the cells look like under the microscope.

270
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:10,160
Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying.

271
00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:13,000
Speaker 3: You could see it under the microscope, and those cells

272
00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:14,880
Speaker 3: can clump up and cause class and it could be

273
00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:18,320
Speaker 3: super painful and you get like so when you have it,

274
00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:20,480
Speaker 3: you could get something called a crisis, which is when

275
00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:23,600
Speaker 3: this happens and you're having this widespread pain throughout your body.

276
00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:28,280
Speaker 3: I don't understand between the symptoms and the microscopic findings

277
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:30,280
Speaker 3: and the blood work, like how they did not know

278
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:35,040
Speaker 3: a patient was present, wasn't presenting like a typical patient

279
00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:36,400
Speaker 3: that had something like this.

280
00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:39,120
Speaker 2: That's what I'm talking about. And then on her end,

281
00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:42,760
Speaker 2: it seems completely idiotic to go through and get the

282
00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:47,000
Speaker 2: treatments when you could just lie and I don't know,

283
00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:49,080
Speaker 2: or go one night. I take, yeah, I would lie.

284
00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:50,720
Speaker 3: I would I really like to know what she was

285
00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:56,079
Speaker 3: doing because like, something doesn't make sense to me, because

286
00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:59,360
Speaker 3: I feel talking about if you get medication for something,

287
00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:03,319
Speaker 3: they're gonna your blood work and be like okay, like

288
00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:05,920
Speaker 3: how they're not going to be adding things or giving

289
00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:09,200
Speaker 3: you additional things when everything looks fine. I just I

290
00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:11,600
Speaker 3: don't understand. I hope one of you guys know more

291
00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:14,720
Speaker 3: about this case and can tell us about it. But

292
00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:18,199
Speaker 3: let's get into the last story of the week here.

293
00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:20,000
Speaker 3: This is a good one.

294
00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:24,040
Speaker 2: Researchers in Zurich have developed a pad that can analyze

295
00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:28,040
Speaker 2: menstrual blood. So this is really cool.

296
00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:31,200
Speaker 3: I think it's a lot of different people are trying

297
00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:33,960
Speaker 3: to get onto this technology. So we had an article

298
00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:39,320
Speaker 3: last year that was about menstrual blood being used because

299
00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:42,680
Speaker 3: a lot of people think, like, okay, women have about

300
00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:45,200
Speaker 3: four hundred and fifty periods a year and you're just

301
00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:48,480
Speaker 3: like throwing away this blood and maybe we could find

302
00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:51,520
Speaker 3: something with this blood. So the article we have from

303
00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:54,840
Speaker 3: last year showed that there was these strips you could

304
00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:58,920
Speaker 3: put on the pad that would go give you results

305
00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:01,880
Speaker 3: through a smartphone, but you had to send these strips

306
00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:04,920
Speaker 3: into a laboratory to get results. And mainly that was

307
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:08,680
Speaker 3: monitoring like a one C, which is a super important

308
00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:10,360
Speaker 3: thing that you would want to do if you're a.

309
00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:13,200
Speaker 2: Pre diabetic or diabetic. It gives you more of a

310
00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:17,920
Speaker 2: representation because it's continuously monitoring your blood for seven days

311
00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:20,240
Speaker 2: throughout your cycle and stuff. So it's kind of cool

312
00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:24,160
Speaker 2: that technology. So now this is only one year later

313
00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:28,640
Speaker 2: and they're basically saying that this is menstrual AI and

314
00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:30,920
Speaker 2: this one doesn't need to be sent to a lab.

315
00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:34,040
Speaker 2: It goes right on the pad and finds the biomarkers

316
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:38,640
Speaker 2: and it shows all different sorts of things like hormone levels, inflammation,

317
00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:44,080
Speaker 2: possible reproductive problems. So it has the same kind of

318
00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:46,880
Speaker 2: proteins that are found in blood that are taken from

319
00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:49,680
Speaker 2: your veins, so they could do all sorts of tests

320
00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:53,720
Speaker 2: like checking for ovarian cancer and other tumor markers and

321
00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:58,800
Speaker 2: endometriosis and things like that. So it's really cool. I

322
00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:00,200
Speaker 2: think it's I mean, it's.

323
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:02,960
Speaker 3: Gross because just period blood just sounds gross, But it's

324
00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:06,640
Speaker 3: cool that you could just test somebody just by like

325
00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:07,360
Speaker 3: wearing a pad.

326
00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:10,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's kind of like an order ring, but for menstruation.

327
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:13,960
Speaker 2: Yeah exactly. You're just bleeding on it and it's just

328
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:17,560
Speaker 2: continuously taking your info and then you could just open

329
00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:19,520
Speaker 2: an app right up on your phone and like look

330
00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:22,200
Speaker 2: at what's going on for the day. So yeah, it

331
00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:26,400
Speaker 2: definitely is. I think this is a cool invention. I mean,

332
00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:28,600
Speaker 2: I obviously want to see a lot more studies and

333
00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:30,440
Speaker 2: stuff to make sure it works really well, but I

334
00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:33,280
Speaker 2: mean if it could really help people out, that could

335
00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:36,040
Speaker 2: be something that's awesome and a huge game changer. Yeah.

336
00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:38,320
Speaker 3: And this is like, this is one of the things

337
00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:42,800
Speaker 3: that I think is a good use of AI. You know, like,

338
00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:46,480
Speaker 3: obviously this technology is going to be helpful. Like I

339
00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:49,760
Speaker 3: was thinking this last night, Like Gabe has like a

340
00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:51,640
Speaker 3: rap I don't know, he was like shave in the

341
00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:53,480
Speaker 3: back of his neck or something. He has like a thing,

342
00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:55,280
Speaker 3: and he's like, what's back there? And I look and

343
00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:58,280
Speaker 3: I'm like, ooh, it's like a little rash. Right, So

344
00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:00,400
Speaker 3: I'm looking at it and I'm like, oh, that be

345
00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:02,800
Speaker 3: I know that they're working on this because we've talked

346
00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:05,359
Speaker 3: about this before, that they're working on some kind of

347
00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:07,040
Speaker 3: an app where you could just like scan.

348
00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:09,159
Speaker 2: Your rash and find out like what it is or whatever.

349
00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:11,400
Speaker 3: Like, didn't we talk about a case like that where

350
00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:15,239
Speaker 3: it was like with sexually transmitted infections with penises, they

351
00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:17,280
Speaker 3: could like tell you if you have something that needs

352
00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:19,000
Speaker 3: to go get checked out or if it's nothing.

353
00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:21,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, talked about that like you're like a year ago

354
00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:23,840
Speaker 2: or whatever. Yeah, And with that, I think it's good

355
00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:26,040
Speaker 2: to use as like a screening tool. But you have

356
00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:29,439
Speaker 2: to remember those things are like not perfect, and like, yeah,

357
00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:32,120
Speaker 2: most of the same thing's gonna happen. The same thing

358
00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:33,800
Speaker 2: is gonna happen with the skin rash one.

359
00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:36,919
Speaker 3: And but just think like if this was back in

360
00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:39,760
Speaker 3: the day, like obviously, like I have friends who are

361
00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:42,919
Speaker 3: a dermato pathologist, so I just sent the picture to

362
00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:45,600
Speaker 3: them and was like what is this, you know? But

363
00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:47,840
Speaker 3: to Karen, you know, I was like, dude, what is this?

364
00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:51,639
Speaker 3: And like whatever, she told me what it was and

365
00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:56,679
Speaker 3: it's nothing. But like, what if it's as back in

366
00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:58,800
Speaker 3: the day where like you don't even have the Internet

367
00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:01,840
Speaker 3: or anything, like you you have to make an appointment

368
00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:03,520
Speaker 3: with your doctor and then you're going to go to

369
00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:06,040
Speaker 3: your family doctor and they're going to say, oh, it's

370
00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:07,920
Speaker 3: a skin thing. I don't know any skin things. I'm

371
00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:10,040
Speaker 3: going to send you to dermatology. And then you have

372
00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:13,200
Speaker 3: to wait six months to get your appointment with dermatology

373
00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:15,040
Speaker 3: and then you go and you get your cream and

374
00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:18,119
Speaker 3: handle it. Whereas now it's like how cool would it

375
00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:22,040
Speaker 3: be if you could just do the scan and be like, oh,

376
00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:24,160
Speaker 3: I could just put cortizona this, or oh I could

377
00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:26,119
Speaker 3: just put anti fungal on this or something, and like

378
00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:29,240
Speaker 3: treat a lot of these things yourself that are treatable,

379
00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:32,240
Speaker 3: you know. But obviously that's going to go terribly wrong

380
00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:36,600
Speaker 3: because people are going to be treating like putting steroids

381
00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:39,080
Speaker 3: on like cants, cancer and things that they shouldn't be

382
00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:40,080
Speaker 3: putting steroids on, you know.

383
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:42,680
Speaker 2: Like it's it'll be a mess. That's what I'm talking about.

384
00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:45,639
Speaker 2: Like I understand it, and I think it's cool, but

385
00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:47,919
Speaker 2: like you can't use this as like secure all. You

386
00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:49,760
Speaker 2: have to take it as like a tool that could

387
00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:52,680
Speaker 2: give you some information that if you want, you could

388
00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:54,600
Speaker 2: take it a step further and then go see a

389
00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:56,840
Speaker 2: doctor if you think something's wrong. Yeah.

390
00:18:56,920 --> 00:19:00,280
Speaker 3: I think it's cool though, because I think like there's

391
00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:03,760
Speaker 3: always been a thing that like people are can't be

392
00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:05,840
Speaker 3: in control of taking care of their own health, and

393
00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:08,639
Speaker 3: there's like plenty of things that people can go treat

394
00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:11,040
Speaker 3: themselves without having to involve a doctor, you know.

395
00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:14,440
Speaker 2: Yeah. All right, Well, thank you guys so much. Don't
